Eli, that's true, I guess I could just do that, but what I'd like MOST to do 
is be able to Remote Login to the desktop that's already up (":0" if you 
will) and control it from another computer, as opposed to pulling up an 
entirely "new" or "separate" X session that's just blank, and that's what 
Beryl seems to have a problem with, the ":0" thing.  Does that make 
sense.... am I understanding what you're saying correctly?

And Nate, yeah, more like an appendage is a good way to put it!  Getting to 
another "desktop" (or "side of the cube") just feels so natural and easy. 
And Wiimote + Beryl would be sweeeeeeeet! :)  I've got a friend who's set up 
GlovePie and all that on a Windows box and is using a Wiimote to control his 
MIDI recording stuff.  Tilt remote left for volume down, right for volume 
up, etc!  Very cool!!
